~Buffalo Bathing~, a photo from West Bengal, Est

Photographer's Note

The domesticated buffalo, provides great value to humans, including pulling carts, pulling plows to prepare rice fields, and providing milk, meat, and leather, and fertilizer.Its a very hot,humid weather...Buffalos are taking bath in the river Ganga...their human owners are busy with their work...

Hi Sunandan!
A great shot with good sharpness and fine details to view.B&W works very well here and Ilike the composition with this little part of the shore in the upper corner.
In january I`ll be in India(mainly Kerala)and I hope I can manage some good shots like yours there.
Regards,Leo

Hi Sunandan,
I like that the line of buffaloes streches from one corner of the frame to the opposite. A nice daily life shot with the men busy with their activities of bathing these hard working animals.

Hello Sunandan,
I like the B&W contrast between the buffalo and the water, with excellent sharpness and details. The human seems to intermingle very well with these domesticated animals.

Good photography, Sunandan

The way you have finished your baby in those sharp passages from deep (yet opulent in details) darkies, to the scorching whites...
Theme seems to be very popular (and over posted !), but - if you have the idea - you can still create a blast.

Hi Sunandan,
Very nice shot to be suitable for TE. Beautiful composition.
In India, the owners take care of the buffaloes very importantly. We must learn their attitude.
